Are you suggesting Buffalo & Detroits defence were lacking in some serious talent? They should never have had to have dealt with it, did their best, often times having to collapse on the play themselves. You find yourself playing in front of a goalie like that, the puck seemingly on Acid, not a whole Hell of a lot you can do but pray for the hallucinations to stop, Hasek long since gone from this mortal plane, uncommunicative.

Yes, I am. But I won't push the issue until the new top XX defensemen list is created, and I get to point out exactly how many of them DIDN'T play for the Sabres in the late 90s.
